It won't really change the engine noise, it'll just change/enhance the air-going-into-your-engine-noise which ends up sounding Darth Vader-ish if you are using an aluminum cold air.

How can you tell the difference between a bad head gasket and a bad upper intake gasket?

A pressure test on the cylinders will tell if you have a bad head gasket. If you hear a whistle sound near the intake gasket, spray WD-40 (or any type of petroleum spray) on the area and if there is a leak the engine rpms (or engine sound) should change.


Cold air intake changes sound?

Generally speaking, if you had a plastic/rubber intake and you switch to an aluminum cold air intake, then yes, you are going to have a different sound of your engine taking in air... it's going to sound a little more Darth Vader-ish. This will be enhanced if you also use a metallic stainless steel filter like Blitz, CP, X3, etc.

Why do the high speed aircraft use variable intake engine design?

The variable intake controls the amount of air pushed through the engine in order to keep it from stalling. The laws of physics that describe Air flow at speeds below Mach 1 (speed of sound) are different for air flow at supersonic speeds. So the size and shape of the engine inlet at low speeds are different that at high speeds.


I had to replace the intake on my 1996 Bonneville. Now it squeels when it gets warm. It is not a belt or belt driven accessories because the squeel continues 5 seconds after the engine has stopped.?

Sound like it had nothing to do will the intake. The only thing spinning when you shut off the engine would be the fan motor. This squealing happened on my 95 Cavalier. (fyi I have a 98 Bonneville(.
